Praise the Fools!

Praising the fool is beneficial for society!

A fool when pleased might stop doing harm and start doing good work. In this
sense it is wise to praise a fool as he needs motivation. So your praise is
meaningful when it is directed towards a fool!

A wise man by his very nature will keep doing good work. His attitude does not
depend on someone's praise or blame. So it does not serve any purpose to praise
a wise man because your praise cannot make an impact on him.

There are three types of people – the wise, the crooked and the immature.
* Even if the wise man is scolded or praised, he continues doing good work.
* The crooked need to be praised to do good work.
* The immature however need to be both praised and scolded from time to
time.
